I don’t think that web standards were done too complex with such a long goal in mind. It was an organic growth from the deplorable state it was born in. Now web owners realize it of course, but our peer developers still insist on “enhancements” as if 30 years weren’t enough to fix or uproot all of the bs web has. Bigcorps not only own the internet, they raised an entire generation which yells “amazing awesome” at the things that don’t even remotely deserve it. Who might think in the '90s that a program which shows downloaded text, pictures, videos and some simple controls would be impossible to create nowadays. We were angry at different browsers and standards (formats, behaviors) at some point. Now this is fixed and only few chosen control the entire “market”, doing whatever they want. Time to learn the lesson?
